2.7 Assignment of Credits

The assignment of credits to a theoretical course follows a different rule from that of a sessional course.

a. Theoretical Courses: One lecture per week per term is equivalent to one credit. b. Sessional Courses: Credits for sessional courses is half of the class hours per week per term.

Page 10: CHAPTER 1 GENERAL INFORMATION 1.1. Introduction to MIST

RESTRICTED

10

Credits are also assigned to project and thesis work taken by the students. The amount of credits assigned to such work varies from one discipline to another.

2.8 Types of Courses

The types of courses included in the undergraduate curriculum are divided into the following groups:

a. Core Courses: In each discipline, a number of courses are identified as core courses, which form the nucleus of the respective bachelor’s degree program. A student has to complete all the designated core courses of his/her discipline. b. Pre-requisite Courses: Some of the core courses are identified as prerequisite courses for a specific subject. c. Optional Courses: Apart from the core courses, the students can choose from a set of optional courses. A required number of optional courses from a specified group have to be chosen.

2.9 Course Offering and Instruction

2.9.1 The courses to be offered in a particular term are announced and published in the Course Catalog along with the tentative Term Schedule before the end of the previous term. The courses to be offered in any term will be decided by Board of Undergraduate Studies (BUGS) of the respective department.

2.9.2 Each course is conducted by a course teacher who is responsible for maintaining the expected standard of the course and for the assessment of students’ performance. Depending on the strength of registered students (i.e. on the number of students) enrolled for the course, the teacher concerned might have course associates and Teaching Assistants (TA) to aid in teaching and assessment. 2.10 Teacher Student Interaction

The new course system encourages students to come in close contact with the teachers. For promotion of a high level of teacher-student interaction, each student is assigned to an adviser

and the student is free to discuss all academic matters with his/her adviser. Students are also encouraged to meet any time with other teachers for help and guidance in academic matters. However, students are not allowed to interact with teachers after the moderation of questions.

2.11 Student Adviser

2.11.1 One adviser is normally appointed for a group of students by the BUGS of the concerned department. The adviser advises each student about the courses to be taken in

each term by discussing the academic program of that particular term with the student.

Page 11: CHAPTER 1 GENERAL INFORMATION 1.1. Introduction to MIST

RESTRICTED

11

2.11.2 However, it is also the student’s responsibility to keep regular contact with his/her adviser who will review and eventually approve the student’s specific plan of study and monitor subsequent progress of the student. 2.11.3 For a student of second and subsequent terms, the number and nature of courses for which he/she can register is decided on the basis of academic performance during the

previous term. The adviser may permit the student to drop one or more courses based on previous academic performance.

2.12 Course Registration

2.12.1 Any student who uses classroom, laboratory facilities or faculty-time is required to register formally. Upon admission to the MIST, students are assigned to advisers. These advisers guide the students in choosing and registering courses.

2.12.2 Registration Procedure: At the commencement of each term, each student has to

register for courses in consultation with and under the guidance of his/her adviser. The date, time and venue of registration are announced in advance by the Registrar’s Office. Counseling and advising are accomplished at this time. It is absolutely essential that all the students be present for registration at the specified time.

2.12.3 Pre-conditions for Registration

a. For first year students, department-wise enrolment/ admission is mandatory prior to registration. At the beginning of the first term, an orientation program will be conducted for them where they are handed over with the registration package on

submission of the enrolment slip. b. Any student, other than the new batch, with outstanding dues to the MIST or a hall of residence is not permitted to register. Each student must clear their dues and obtain a clearance certificate, upon production of which, he/she will be given necessary Course Registration Forms to perform course registration. c. A student is allowed to register in a particular course subject to the class capacity constraints and satisfaction of pre-requisite courses. However, even if a student fails in a pre-requisite course in any term, the concerned department (BUGS) may allow him/her to register for a course which depends upon the pre-requisite course provided that his/her attendance and performance in the continuous assessment of the mentioned p re-requisite

course is found to be satisfactory.

2.12.4 Registration Deadline: Each student must register for the courses to be taken before the commencement of each term. Late registration is permitted only during the

first week of classes. Late registration after this date will not be accepted unless the student submits a written application to the registrar through the concerned Head of the department explaining the reasons for delay. Acceptable reasons may be medical

Page 12: CHAPTER 1 GENERAL INFORMATION 1.1. Introduction to MIST

RESTRICTED

12

problems with supporting documents from the Medical Officer of MIST or some other academic commitments that prohibit enrollment prior to the last date of registration.

2.12.5 Penalty for Late Registration: Students who fail to register during the designated dates for registration are charged a late registration fee of Tk. 100.00 (One hundred only) per credit hours. Penalty for late registration will not be waived.

2.12.6 Limits on the Credit Hours to be taken

A student should be enrolled for at least 15 credit hours and is allowed to take a

maximum of 24 credit hours. Relaxation on minimum credit hours may be allowed. A student must enroll for the sessional courses prescribed in a particular term within the

allowable credit hour limits. In special cases where it is not possible to allot the minimum required 15 credit hours to a

student, the concerned department (BUGS) may permit with the approval of the Commandant, a lesser number of credit hours to suit individual requirements. Such cases are also applicable to students of Level 4 requiring less than 15 credit hours for graduation.

2.12.7 Course Add/ Drop

A student has some limited options to add or drop courses from the registration list. Addition of courses is allowed only within the first two weeks of a regular term and only

during the first week of a short term. Dropping a course is permitted within the first four weeks of a regular term and two weeks of a short term.

Any student willing to add or drop courses has to fill up a Course Adjustment Form. This

also has to be done in consultation with and under the guidance of the student’s respective adviser. The original copy of the Course Adjustment Form has to be submit ted to the Registrar’s Office, where the required numbers of photocopies are made for distribution to the concerned adviser, Head, Dean, Controller of Examinations and the student. All changes must be approved by the adviser and the Head of the concerned department. The Course Adjustment Form has to be submitted after being signed by the concerned

persons.

2.12.8 Withdrawal from a Term

If a student is unable to complete the Term Final Examination due to serious illness or serious accident, he/she may apply to the Head of the degree awarding department for total withdrawal from the term before commencement of term final examination.

However, application may be considered during term final examination in special case. The application must be supported by a medical certificate from the Medical Officer of MIST. The concerned student may opt for retaining the sessional courses of the term. The

Page 13: CHAPTER 1 GENERAL INFORMATION 1.1. Introduction to MIST

13

Academic Council will take the final decision about such applications. However, the total duration for graduation will not exceed 6 academic years. 2.13 The Grading System

The total performance of a student in a given course is based on a scheme of continuous

assessment, for theory courses this continuous assessment is made through a set of quizzes, class tests, class evaluation, class participation, homework assignment and a term final examination. The assessments for sessional courses are made by evaluating performance of the student at work during the class, viva-voce during laboratory hours and quizzes. Besides that, at the end

there will be a final lab test. Each course has a certain number of credits, which describes its corresponding weightages. A student's performance is measured by the number of credits completed satisfactorily and by the weighted average of the grade points earned. A minimum grade point average (GPA) is essential for satisfactory progress. A minimum number of earned

credits also have to be acquired in order to qualify for the degree. Letter grades and corresponding grade points will be given as follows:

Numerical Markings Grade Grade Points

80% and above A+ 4.00

75% to below 80% A 3.75

70% to below 75% A- 3.50

2.14 Distribution of Marks

2.14.1 Theory: Thirty percent (30%) of marks of a theoretical course shall be allotted

for continuous assessment, i.e. quizzes, home assignments, class tests, observations/ class participation and class attendance. These marks must be submitted to Office of the Controller of Examinations before commencement of final exam. The rest of the marks will be allotted to the Term Final Examination. The duration of final examination will be

three (03) hours. The scheme of continuous assessment that a particular teacher would follow for a course will be announced on the first day of the classes.

Students having class attendance of 90% or above in individual subject will be treated as collegiate and less than 90% and up to 75% will be treated as non-collegiate in that subject. The non-collegiate student(s) may be allowed to appear in the examination subject to payment of

non-collegiate fee/fine of an amount fixed by MIST/BUP. Students having class attendance below 75% will be treated as dis-collegiate and will not be allowed to appear in the examination and treated as fail. But in a special case such students may be allowed to appear in the examination with the permission of Commandant and it must be approved by the Academic

Council. 2.17 Calculation of GPA

Grade Point Average (GPA) is the weighted average of the grade points obtained of all the

courses passed/completed by a student. For example, if a student passes/completes n courses in a

term having credits of C1, C2, … , Cn and his grade points in these courses are G1, G2, … , Gn

respectively then

The Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) is the weighted average of the GPA obtained in all the terms passed/completed by a student. For example, if a student passes/ completes n terms having

total credits of TC1, TC2, … , TCn and his GPA in these terms are GPA 1, GPA2, GPAn respectively

then

2.17.1 Numerical Example

Suppose a student has completed eight courses in a term and obtained the following grades:

17

course in which he/she has previously obtained an ‘F’, he/she will not be eligible to get a grade better than ‘B+’ in that repeated course.

c. If a student obtains a grade lower than ‘B+’ in a particular course he/she will be allowed to repeat the course only once for the purpose of grade improvement. However, he/she will not be eligible to get a grade better than ‘B+’ for an improvement course.

d. A student will be permitted to repeat for grade improvement purposes a maximum of 6 courses in B.Sc. Engineering programs and a maximum of 7 courses in B. Arch. program.

e. If a student obtains a ‘B+’ or a better grade in any course he/she will not be allowed to repeat the course for the purpose of grade improvement.

2.21 Classification of Students

2.21.1 At MIST, regular students are classified according to the number of credit hours completed/ earned towards a degree. The following classification applies to all the students:

Leve l Credit Hours Earned

Engineering Architecture

Le vel 1 0.0 to 36.0 0.0 to 34.0 Le vel 2 More than 36.0 to 72.0 More than 34.0 to 72.0

Le vel 3 More than 72.0 to 108.0 More than 72.0 to 110.0 Le vel 4 More than 108.0 More than 110.0 to 147.0

Le vel 5 More than 147.0

2.21.2 However, before the commencement of each term all students other than new batch are classified into three categories:

Category 1: This category consists of students who have passed all the courses

described for the term. A student belonging to this category will be eligible to register for all courses prescribed for the upcoming term. Category 2: This category consists of students who have earned a minimum of 15 credits but do not belong to category 1. A student belonging to this category is advised

to take at least one course less since he might have to register for one or more backlog courses as prescribed by his/her adviser. Category 3: This category consists of students who have failed to earn the minimum required 15 credits in the previous term. A student belonging to this category is advised to take at least two courses less than a category 1 student subject to the constraint of registering at least 15 credits. However, he will also be required to register for backlog

courses as prescribed by the adviser.

2.21.3 Definition of Graduating Student: Graduating students are those students who will have ≤ 24 credit hour for completing the degree requirement.

2.22 Performance Evaluation

i. The performance of a student will be evaluated in terms of two indices, viz. Term Grade Point Average and Cumulative Grade Point Average which is the grade average for all the terms completed.

ii. Students will be considered to be making normal progress toward a degree if their Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) for all work attempted is 2.20 or higher. Students who regularly maintain a term GPA of 2.20 or better are making good progress toward the degrees and are in good standing with MIST. Students who fail to maintain this minimum rate of progress will not be in good standing. This can happen when any one of the following conditions exists. a. The term GPA falls below 2.20. b. The Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) falls below 2.20.

c. The earned number of credits falls below 15 times the number of terms attended. iii. All such students can make up their deficiencies in GPA and credit requirements by

completing courses in the subsequent term(s) and backlog courses, if there are any, with better grades. When the minimum GPA and credit requirements are achieved the student is again returned to good standing.

2.23 Application for Graduation and Award of Degree

A student who has fulfilled all the academic requirements for Bachelor’s degree will have to apply to the Controller of Examinations through his/her Adviser for graduation. Provisional Degree will be awarded by BUP on completion of credit and GPA requirements.

2.24 Time Limits for Completion of Bachelor’s Degree

A student must complete his studies within a maximum period of six years for engineering and seven years for architecture.

2.25 Attendance, Conduct and Discipline

MIST has strict rules regarding the issues of attendance in class and discipline.

Attendance: All students are expected to attend classes regularly. The university believes that attendance is necessary for effective learning. The first responsibility of a student is to attend classes regularly and one is required to attend the classes as per MIST rules. Conduct and Discipline: During their stay in MIST all students are required to abide by the

existing rules, regulations and code of conduct. Students are strictly forbidden to form or be members of student organization or political party, club, society etc., other than those set up by MIST authority in order to enhance student’s physical, intellectual, moral and ethical

19

development. Zero tolerance in regards of sexual abuse and harassment in any forms and drug abuse and addiction are strictly observed in the campus.

2.26 Teacher-Student Interaction

The academic system in MIST encourages students to come in close contact with the teachers. For promotion of high level of teacher-student’s interaction, a course coordinator (CC) is assigned to each course. Students are free to discuss with CC about all academic matters.

Students are also encouraged to meet other teachers any time for help and guidance for academic matters. Heads of the departments, Director of Administration, Director of Students Welfare (DSW), Dean and Commandant address the students at some intervals. More so, monthly Commandant's Parade is organized in MIST where all faculty members, staff and students are

formed up, thereby increasing teacher-student interaction.

2.27 Absence during a Term

A student should not be absent from quizzes, tests, etc. during the term. Such absence will

naturally lead to reduction in points/marks, which count towards the final grade. Absence in the Term Final Examination will result in an F grade in the corresponding course. A student who has been absent for short periods, up to a maximum of three weeks due to illness, should approach the course teacher(s) or the course coordinator(s) for make-up quizzes or assignments

immediately upon return to classes. Such request has to be supported by medical certificate from competent authority (e.g. СМH/MIST Medical Officer).

2.28 Recognition of Performance

As recognition of performance and ensure continued studies MIST awards medals, scholarships and stipends will be given as per existing rules and practices.

2.29 Types of Different Examination

Following different types of final Examinations will be conducted in MIST to evaluate the students of Undergraduate Programs:

a. Term Final Examination: At the end of each normal term (after 22wk or so),

term final examination will be held. Students will appear in the term final examination for all the theory courses they have taken in the term.

b. Short Term Examination: Short Term may be conducted after one week completion of Term 2 final examination. Students will be allowed to take maximum three theoretical courses in the Short Term. Examination will be conducted at the end of Short

Term (6th

week class). However, Head of concerned department with the approval of Commandant may decide to take Supplementary examination instead of Short Term. No Laboratory/ Sessional Courses can be taken in short term.

Page 20: CHAPTER 1 GENERAL INFORMATION 1.1. Introduction to MIST

RESTRICTED

20

c. Supplementary Examination: It will take place once in a year, after each term-I final break. It should be completed within first 3 weeks of a new term. Students will be

allowed to appear this examination for one subject at a time. Graduating students will be allowed to appear maximum two subjects during supplementary examination in their last Term. However, Head of the concerned department with the approval of Commandant

may decide to take another Supplementary Examination instead of Short Term. In that case, a student will be allowed to take only one failed course in the particular Supplementary Examination. This examination will be conducted in the previous week of

the beginning of Term I. Highest achieved grade for all courses of Supplementary Examination will be B+.

d. Improvement Examination: It will be taken during supplementary and short

term examination. Questions will be same as the question of the regular examination of that Short Term Final Examination (if any). Student can take two subject at a time and maximum 6 subjects in the whole academic duration. If a student obtains a grade lower

than ‘B+’ in a course, he/she will be allowed to repeat the course only once for grade improvement. However, he/she will not be eligible to get a grade better then ‘B+’ for an improvement course. Among the previous result and improvement examination result,

best one will be considered as final result for an individual student. However, performance of all examination i.e. previous to improvement examination, shall be reflected in the transcript.

e. Self-Study Course Examination: Only graduating students (level-4) will be

allowed to appear at Self Study course examination. It will be taken with Term Final Examination. No regular class will be arranged for this, but teachers will be assigned for supervising and guiding the students for study, conducting class test/quiz and regular

assessment for 30% marks. Maximum two theory courses may be taken as self-study course by a student. Highest achieved grade for these courses will be B+. In that case a student will be allowed to take maximum 24 credits instead of 15 in the last Term of his/her graduation.

f. Special Referred Examination: Since course system will start from 1st

Term of

2018, for all casualty cases like referred, backlog, failed courses, level repeat students will be given chance to clear their respective all failed courses by appearing in this examination. It will be held after the confirmation of the result of Term-II Final Examination of 2017 and before starting of the class of the Term-I of 2018. Students of all levels, failed in any courses even after appearing in Special Referred Examination-1, will be allowed to re-appear again in the failed courses during Special Referred Examination-2 to be held during Mid Term break of Term-1 of 2018. Student of Level-4 of 2017, failed in any courses even after appearing in these two referred examinations, will be allowed to clear failed courses as a last chance, during Term-1 final examination of 2018 (as a Special Referred Examination-3). Students of other levels, failed in any

courses even after appearing in two Special Referred Examinations, will be allowed to clear these failed courses as per normal rules of course system (either by retaking these courses or appearing at the supplementary Examination). Highest grade for courses in all these examinations will be ‘B+’.

PME 319: Heat Transfer and Mass Transfer

3.00 Contact Hour; 3.00 Credit Hour

Pre-requisite: None

Rationale:

Heat can be transferred from one place to another by three methods: conduction in solids,

convection of fluids (liquids or gases), and radiation through anything that will allow

radiation to pass. The method used to transfer heat is usually the one that is the most efficient.

Mass transfer is the net movement of mass from one location, usually meaning stream, phase,

fraction or component, to another. Mass transfer occurs in many processes, such as

absorption, evaporation, drying, precipitation, membrane filtration, and distillation.

Objective:

Heat Transfer

1. Model basic heat transfer processes and identify modes

2. Calculate thermal resistances

3. Perform an energy balance to determine temperature and heat flux

4. Identify fins and calculate fin performance

5. Use shape factors for 2-D conduction

6. Solve lumped parameter transient heat transfer problems

7. Solve distributed parameter transient heat transfer problems

8. Recognize basic convective heat transfer and apply appropriate methods for quantifying

convection

9. Calculate convective heat transfer coefficients for internal flow

10. Calculate convective heat transfer coefficients for external flow

11. Design and size heat exchangers

12. Predict heat exchanger performance

13. Calculate radiation view factors

14. Determine radiation heat transfer

Mass Transfer

1. The objective of this module is to bring in the concept of mass transfer, which is mass

in transit as a result of species concentration difference in a mixture.

2. For this module, it is assumed that the student already has a good concept of

conduction and convection heat transfer, so that the mass transfer concepts are taught

with the help of drawing analogy from heat transfer.

3. It is important for the student to understand the context in which the term mass

transfer is used. The student should understand that the driving potential for mass

transfer is concentration gradient, and one can obtain a mass transfer flux due the

concentration gradient.

4. The student should understand that there are modes of mass transfer that are similar to

conduction and convection modes in heat transfer. Equivalent non-dimensional

numbers will also be introduced to describe the relative effects of various parameters

governing mass transfer.

PME 325: Reservoir Engineering

4.00 Contact Hour; 4.00 Credit Hour

Pre-requisite: None

Rationale:

Reservoir engineering is a branch of petroleum engineering that applies scientific principles

to the fluid flow through porous medium during the development and production of oil and

gas reservoirs so as to obtain a high economic recovery. The working tools of the reservoir

engineer are subsurface geology, applied mathematics, and the basic laws of physics and

chemistry governing the behavior of liquid and vapor phases of crude oil, natural gas, and

water in reservoir rock. Of particular interest to reservoir engineers is generating accurate

reserves estimates for use in financial reporting. Other job responsibilities include numerical

reservoir modeling, production forecasting, well testing, well drilling and workover planning,

economic modeling, and PVT analysis of reservoir fluids. Reservoir engineers also play a

central role in field development planning, recommending appropriate and cost effective

reservoir depletion schemes such as waterflooding or gas injection to maximize hydrocarbon

recovery.

Objectives:

1. Present volumetric method to calculate initial oil in place.

2. Demonstrate volumetric method to calculate unit recovery from volumetric gas

reservoirs.

3. Calculate unit recovery from gas reservoirs under water drive.

4. Define and the effects of water drive mechanism on the hydrocarbon reservoirs.

5. Demonstrate the linear form of the Material Balance equation for a gas reservoir and

comment on its application.

6. Present how calculate the total water influx resulting from a known aquifer volume in

terms of total aquifer compressibility and pressure drop over the aquifer.

7. Present how to calculate initial oil and gas from the gas condensate reservoirs based

on mole composition and other properties of typical single phase reservoir fluids.

8. Predict and calculate volumetric depletion performance of a retrograde gas

condensation.

9. Present how to calculate initial oil in place by the volumetric method and estimate of

oil recoveries in under-saturated reservoir.

10. How to use Material Balance in under-saturated reservoirs.

11. Predict and calculate solution gas drive performance.

PME 411: Well Test Analysis

3.00 Contact Hour; 3.00 Credit Hour

Pre-requisite: None

Rationale:

A “well test” is simply a period of time during which the production of the well is measured,

either at the well head with portable well test equipment, or in a production facility.

Objective:

Most well tests consist of changing the rate, and observing the change in pressure caused by

this change in rate. To perform a well test successfully one must be able to measure the time,

the rate, the pressure, and control the rate. Well tests, if properly designed, can be used to

estimate the following parameters:

1. Flow conductance

2. Skin factor

PME 413: Reservoir Modeling and Simulation

3.00 Contact Hour; 3.00 Credit Hour

Pre-requisite: None

Rationale:

Reservoir simulation is an area of reservoir engineering in which computer models are used

to predict the flow of fluids (typically, oil, water, and gas) through porous media. Reservoir

simulation models are used by oil and gas companies in the development of new fields. Also,

models are used in developed fields where production forecasts are needed to help make

investment decisions. As building and maintaining a robust, reliable model of a field is often

time-consuming and expensive, models are typically only constructed where large investment

decisions are at stake. Improvements in simulation software have lowered the time to develop

a model. Also, models can be run on personal computers rather than more expensive

workstations

Objective:

Reservoir simulations can at best only give an educated guess at the likely outcomes because

the input data is riddled with uncertainties. Though the data should not be scoffed at and

instantly dismissed, when combined with statistical likelihoods the data can present a useful

picture of the upper and lower boundaries of recovery and the most likely scenario from

which future actions can be planned. At the appraisal stage we typically determine:

1. The nature of the reservoir recovery plan

2. The nature of the facility required to develop the field

3. Nature and capacities of plant equipment for injection and separation

4. The different types and number of wells to be drilled

5. Sequence of the drilling program

Course Learning Outcomes (CO):

On successful completion of this course students will be able to:

1) Recognize the main terminology, concepts and techniques that applies to Reservoir

Lecture Tasks

Week-1 Step 1. Identify a need:

The need (also called the problem you are solving or the Engineering Goal) is

frequently identified by customers–the users of the product. The customer

could be a retail consumer or the next team in a product development.

Customers may express needs by describing a product (I need a car) or as a

functional requirement (I need a way to get to school). The need should be

described in a simple statement that includes what you are designing (the

product), who it is for (customer), what need does it satisfy (problem to solve),

and how does it improve previous designs (easier to use, less expensive, more

Week-2

Page 330: CHAPTER 1 GENERAL INFORMATION 1.1. Introduction to MIST

RESTRICTED

330

efficient, safer).

Week-3 Step 2. Establish design criteria and constraints:

Design criteria are requirements you specify that will be used to make

decisions about how to build and evaluate the product. Criteria are derived

from needs expressed by customers. Criteria define the product‟s physical and

functional characteristics and must be declared as a measurable quantity.

Some examples of measurable criteria include length (in cm, km, etc.); mass

(in mg, kg, etc.); velocity (in m/sec, km/hr., etc.); and ruggedness (able to

withstand an impact force of x Newtons). Some examples of measurable

accuracy include, „…fewer than y errors per mSec…‟ or „…fewer than z

particles per liter of fluid….‟ Constraints are factors that limit the engineer‟s

flexibility. Some typical constraints are cost, time, and knowledge; legal

issues; natural factors such as topography, climate, raw materials; and where

the product will be used. Good designs will meet important design criteria

within the limits fixed by the constraints. Good designs are also economical to

make and use because cost is always a design constraint!

Week-4

Week-5

Week-6

Week-7

Week-8 Step 3. Evaluate alternative designs and create your test plan:

Your research into possible solutions will reveal what has been done to satisfy

similar needs. You‟ll discover where knowledge and science limit your

solutions, how previous solutions may be improved, and what different

approaches may meet design objectives. You should consider at least two or

three alternative designs and consider using available technology, modifying

current designs, or inventing new solutions. Superior work will demonstrate

tradeoff analyses such as comparing the strength vs. cost of various bridge-

building materials. It‟s important to document in your project notebook how

you chose and evaluated alternative designs. Can you defend your choices to

the judges?

You will develop an initial test plan describing how you will test the design

criteria and constraints you listed in Step 2. Many engineering design projects

will require pre-approval from the SRC. A risk assessment form (3) is required

for any project using hazardous chemicals, activities or devices and

microorganisms exempt from pre-approval. If you will involve humans in your

product testing, you will be required to fill out a Human Participant Research

Plan. The exemption to this requirement is if your invention does not pose a

risk, and it is being tested only by yourself or your team members.

STOP! You must complete an Application Form including a completed

engineering template, risk assessment form and/or Human Participant

Research Plan as appropriate. Obtain approval from your teacher and the SRC

(Scientific Review Committee) BEFORE you build your prototype.

PME 414: Reservoir Modeling and Simulation Sessional

3.00 Contact Hour; 1.50 Credit Hour

Pre-requisite: None

Rationale:

Reservoir simulation is an area of reservoir engineering in which computer models are used

to predict the flow of fluids (typically, oil, water, and gas) through porous media. Reservoir

simulation models are used by oil and gas companies in the development of new fields. Also,

models are used in developed fields where production forecasts are needed to help make

investment decisions. As building and maintaining a robust, reliable model of a field is often

time-consuming and expensive, models are typically only constructed where large investment

decisions are at stake. Improvements in simulation software have lowered the time to develop

a model. Also, models can be run on personal computers rather than more expensive

workstations

Objective:

Reservoir simulations can at best only give an educated guess at the likely outcomes because

the input data is riddled with uncertainties. Though the data should not be scoffed at and

instantly dismissed, when combined with statistical likelihoods the data can present a useful

picture of the upper and lower boundaries of recovery and the most likely scenario from

which future actions can be planned. At the appraisal stage we typically determine:

1. The nature of the reservoir recovery plan

2. The nature of the facility required to develop the field

3. Nature and capacities of plant equipment for injection and separation

4. The different types and number of wells to be drilled

5. Sequence of the drilling program

Course Learning Outcomes (CO):

On successful completion of this course students will be able to:

1) Recognize the main terminology, concepts and techniques that applies to Reservoir

Modeling and Simulation founded on a theory based understanding of mathematics

and the natural and physical sciences

2) Apply a critical-thinking and problem-solving approach towards the main principles

of Reservoir Modeling and Simulation demonstrated through appropriate and relevant

assessment

3) Apply theoretical and practice skills in data analysis used for real problems through

case studies based on empirical evidence and the scientific approach to knowledge

Course Contents:

Development of reservoir model to simulate the reservoir responses for history matching and

forecasting using the following workflow:-

Stratigraphic Modeling: Prepare well head, deviation and well log data as per the software

format and insert all data into the project. Interpret the log data to make well correlation.

Make synthetic log.

Geophysical Modeling: Prepare 2D/3D seismic data as per the software format and insert all

data into the project. Make synthetic seismogram, well tie and mis-tie analysis. Interpret

horizons. Develop velocity model.

Structural Modeling: Make Fault molding, pillar grid, horizon, zone, layer and fluid contact.

Property Modeling: Property modeling is the process of filling the cells of the grid with

discrete (facies) or continuous (petrophysics) properties. Petrel assumes that the layer

geometry given to the grid follows the Geological layering in the model area. These

processes are therefore dependent upon the geometry of the existing grid. When interpolating

between data points, Petrel will propagate property values along the grid layers.

Property modeling in Petrel is split into three separate processes:

Geometrical modeling - No interpolation of input data is required. Properties are built

based on the geometrical properties of the grid cells themselves, like a cell volume,

angle, height, etc.; some algorithms also require input data, but this data is simply

sampled into the grid (e.g. seismic).

Facies Modeling - Interpolation or simulation of discrete data, e.g. facies.

RESTRICTED

334

Petrophysical modeling - Interpolation or simulation of continuous data, e.g. porosity,

permeability and saturation.

In addition there are three other process steps which can be used when modeling properties:

Scale Up Well Logs - The process of sampling values from well logs or well log

attributes into the grid, ready for use as input to facies modeling and petrophysical

modeling.

Data Analysis - The process of preparing the input data (normally upscaled well logs)

for Property modeling. It consists of applying transformations on input data

identifying trends for continuous data, vertical proportion and probability for discrete

data; as well as defining variograms that describe the input in both cases. This is then

used in the facies and petrophysical modeling to ensure that the same trends appear in

the result.

Fault Analysis - The process where the user can generate fault transmissibility

multipliers, either directly or by modeling fault properties, providing grid

permeabilities and calculating the multiplier. These are then used as input to the

simulation or simply as a visual assessment of the sealing potential of faults.

Simulation Results Displaying

Simulation results come in four forms:

Summary Vectors- These are stored on the Results tab and may be displayed in the

function window or in the map window. See Displaying simulation results using the

data displayed on the Results pane for details of working with these plots.

Properties- These are stored in the appropriate 3D grid and displayed in much the

same way as any other grid property.

Streamlines-These are stored on the 3D grid and displayed in a 3D window. See

Streamlines for more details

Simulation logs-These are stored on a per-simulation basis and are accessed using the

Log folders on the Input tree. They can be displayed in 2D, 3D, well section and

intersection windows. They are sometimes referred to as Dynamic logs

PME 425: Enhanced Oil and Gas Recovery Techniques

2.00 Contact Hour; 2.00 Credit Hour

Pre-requisite: None

Rationale:

Oil production is separated into three phases: primary, secondary and tertiary, which is also

known as Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR). Primary oil recovery is limited to hydrocarbons

that naturally rise to the surface, or those that use artificial lift devices, such as pump jacks.

Objective:

1. The main objective of all methods of EOR is to increase the volumetric (macroscopic)

sweep efficiency and to enhance the displacement (microscopic) efficiency.

2. Primary surfactants usually have co-surfactants, activity boosters, and co-solvents

added to them to improve stability of the formulation.

Course Learning Outcomes (CO):

On successful completion of this course students will be able to:

1) Recognize the main terminology, concepts and techniques that applies to Enhanced

Oil and Gas Recovery founded on a theory based understanding of mathematics and

the natural and physical sciences

2) Apply a critical-thinking and problem-solving approach towards the main principles

of Enhanced Oil and Gas Recovery demonstrated through appropriate and relevant

assessment

3) Apply theoretical and practice skills in data analysis used for real problems through

case studies based on empirical evidence and the scientific approach to knowledge

development

4) Demonstrate the ability to suggest approaches and strategies for the assessment and

quantification of Enhanced Oil and Gas Recovery uncertainty and data management

validated against national or international standards

5) Perform, analyze and optimize oil and gas production rate by using commercial

software that is commonly used in the industry to develop competency in the use of

technology

PME 427: Minerals Processing

3.00 Contact Hour; 3.00 Credit Hour

Pre-requisite: None

Rationale:

Mineral processing is the first process that most ores undergo after mining in order to provide

a more concentrated material for the procedures of extractive metallurgy. Although the

primary operations are comminution and concentration, but there are other important

operations in a modern mineral processing plant, including sizing, sampling and bulk material

handling. This course is intended to provide a detailed understanding of the afore-mentioned

operations

Objective:

1. To achieve the goal of recovering these concentrates, the raw ore must be reduced to

fine size prior to separation.

2. The second objective of comminution in mineral processing is to adjust the size of

mineral particles to adapt to the optimum size for the successive separation processes.

Course Learning Outcomes (CO):

On successful completion of this course students will be able to:

1) Recognize the main terminology, concepts and techniques that applies to Minerals

Processing founded on a theory based understanding of mathematics and the natural

and physical sciences

2) Apply a critical-thinking and problem-solving approach towards the main principles

5) Perform, analyze and optimize Minerals Processing rate by using commercial

software that is commonly used in the industry to develop competency in the use of

technology

6) Engage and participate in class and online discussions to help in communicating

complex concepts to professional colleagues

7) Design sustainable Minerals Processing system development solutions with minimum

environmental impact and beneficial for society

8) Apply ethical principles and commit to professional ethics, responsibilities and the

norms of the Minerals Processing practice

Week-1 Step 4. Build a prototype of best design:

Use your alternative analyses to choose the design that best meets criteria

considering the constraints, then build a prototype. A prototype is the first full

scale and usually functional form of a new type or design.

Week-2

Week-3

Week-4 Step 5. Test and evaluate the prototype against important design criteria to

show how well the product meets the need

You must test your prototype under actual or simulated operating conditions.

Make sure you test all of your criteria and constraints to evaluate the success

of your prototype. Customers are usually involved in product testing so be sure

you have SRC approval if people are involved.

Week-5

Week-6 Step 6. Analyze test results, make design changes and retest

Page 385: CHAPTER 1 GENERAL INFORMATION 1.1. Introduction to MIST

Week-7

Testing will disclose some deficiencies in your design. Sometimes the testing

fails completely and sends the designer ―back to the drawing board.‖ Make

corrections and retest OR prepare an analysis of what went wrong and how

you will fix it. As always, document your analyses, fixes, and retests in your

notebook.

Week-8 Step 7. Communicate the design

The designer’s real product is the description of a design from which others

will build the product. Use your notebook and the fair exhibit to communicate

the design to your customer and the judges. Your product description will be

conveyed in drawings, photos, materials lists, assembly instructions, test plans

and results. Consider listing lessons learned so future designers need not repeat

any of your ―frustrations.‖ You’ll have clear instructions on how to produce

your design, along with production cost estimates.

PME 428: Minerals Processing Laboratory

3.00 Contact Hour; 1.50 Credit Hour

Pre-requisite: None

Rationale:

Mineral processing is the first process that most ores undergo after mining in order to provide

a more concentrated material for the procedures of extractive metallurgy. Although the

primary operations are comminution and concentration, but there are other important

operations in a modern mineral processing plant, including sizing, sampling and bulk material

handling. This course is intended to provide a detailed understanding of the afore-mentioned

operations

Objective:

1. To achieve the goal of recovering these concentrates, the raw ore must be reduced to

fine size prior to separation.

2. The second objective of comminution in mineral processing is to adjust the size of

mineral particles to adapt to the optimum size for the successive separation processes.
